Failing ADT
Hi- I thought I would seek some advice before I meet with my MO tomorrow morning. I have responded well to treatment of metPC since my dx 11+ years ago. About 2+ years ago my PSA became measurable and was rising. After about a year or so I think it reached .37. Following a PSMA scan, my MO saw only

B12 very high with normal blood results?.
hey, hoping someone with some b12 knowledge can give me some advice for when I see my doctor. Last year I was having some b12 injections paid privately, my last one was in early August. They actually made me feel better, but had to stop because of cost. Then in October I started getting severe deficient

endo cysts and swollen fallopian tubes
I have been diagnosed with endo cysts and a swollen fallopian tube via CT and ultrasound. they said in surgery pending how bad they may have to remove one of each (they are unsure until they do the lap) but my concern is that if they are bad, could I wake up to a full hysterectomy? And if so why? thank

Endo specialist?
I have surgery booked February for my laporoscopy - my surgeon is Dr Doyle at Arrow Park hospital, is he an endometriosis specialist? (My consultant Dr Allan said I’m now under the endo team so I’m praying Dr Doyle is an Endo specialist)

Leg Pain pt 3
Writing again because one of you lovely people suggested I saw my MRI results for myself. She was right, my doctor said it was wear and tear in the back. Keep taking the painkillers and walk. But I did see the results and it is Grade 1 degenerative spondylolisthesis. He did not suggest physio. But

Endometriosis and mirena coil
Hi, I hope someone can help, i was diagnosed with endometriosis in December 2023 after undergoing laparoscopy, it couldn't be removed at the time, I am now waiting for robotic excision, I have been recommended to have the mirena coil fitted at the same time as surgery.

Hubby had his bypass
Hubby is out of surgery after his quadruple bypass. They said it went well. He's on a ventilator obviously, and they're going to wake him up in an hour or so, and see if any tubes can be removed. Thank you all so much for your support. I'm going to visit tomorrow

Blood test results
Hi I had been on 50mcg of levothyroxine for about 6 weeks approx because I bought them online since my doctor wouldn't prescribe them at the time, as I have a pending hospital appointment with an endocrinologist at the end of this year and he wanted to wait until I'd see him/her first. I told the doctor

Blood pressure monitor advice
I started taking Leflunomide today and know one of the regular things to be monitored is my blood pressure. To save the 8 mile (45 minute) round trip to the GP surgery I was wondering if it was worth me purchasing a monitor. But the choice is bewildering and prices seem to vary considerably. There seems

Post Circumcision Problems
Hi there, I had a circumcision surgery on the 17th of January. And have had some complications regarding the whole process. The wound and incision areas have all healed and have begun to look a lot better than recent. But the problem I’ve been having now is that my penis head almost likes to bury
